Definitions
- Our invention relates to improvements in automatic strainers or filters. More particularly our invention relates to strainers for a fluid media carrying fibrous or other forms of debris which tend to mat, staple and clog the strainers.
- Fluid strainers have been employed for many years. They remove solids from fluid. The solids are collected on screening media or strainer elements and thereafter the solids are removed from the screening media by backwashing. During backwashing a portion of the fluid being strained is caused to flow in a reverse direction through a backwash arm to clean the media, such as that described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,818,402 which is hereby incorporated by reference.
- the term backwash arm refers to a suction chamber or collection duct.
- these strainers are installed on the discharge side of pumps which have operating pressures, usually in excess of 0 psig with the backwash arms discharging to atmospheric pressure.
- These high differential pressures may be effectively used to backwash self-cleaning strainers.
- High differential pressures result in high fluid velocities across the straining element in the backwashing mode of operation. The high fluid velocities remove debris collected on the straining element.
- the differential pressure available may only be 5 psig or less. This normally is an insufficient pressure differential to effectively clean the straining element.
- Our invention is a fluid strainer that includes a base and a cleaning assembly attached to the base.
- the strainer element which may have a hollow cylindrical shape, attaches to the base through which a fluid being filtered, such as water, must pass.
- the strainer element has an inlet side and an outlet side. The fluid being filtered passes from the inlet side to the outlet side.
- the cleaning assembly includes at least one nozzle mounted to the base. The nozzle directs cleaning fluid, which can be water, against the inlet side of the strainer element to dislodge particulate matter from the inlet side of the strainer element.
- the cleaning assembly also includes a backwash arm for collecting the cleaning fluid and particulate matter.
- the backwash arm mounts to the chamber and is positioned adjacent to the inlet side of the filter and adjacent to the nozzle.
- the cleaning assembly may be positioned in the interior of the strainer element.
- the strainer is particularly well adapted for low-pressure operating conditions, say 5 psig or less.
- the fluid may be fluid which has passed through the strainer element.
- the nozzle may direct fluid to come in contact with the inlet side of the strainer element at an acute incident angle with respect to the tangent to the inlet side of the strainer element at the point of contact of the directed fluid.
- the nozzle may be positioned at approximately a 45 degree angle with respect to the tangent at the cleaning fluid point of contact with the inlet side of the strainer element.
- the nozzle may be mounted to a nozzle conduit which is mounted to the backwash arm. There may also be a plurality of nozzles mounted to the arm.
- the nozzle and the cleaning assembly may be moved relative to the strainer element by a motor which rotates the cleaning assembly about a central axis.
- the nozzle and backwash arm may move in concert with each other.
- the nozzle may include a tip that is positioned in close proximity to the inlet side of the strainer element and an inlet end of the backwash arm so that the cleaning fluid exiting from the nozzle tip contacts the inlet side of the strainer element thereby dislodging particulate matter which then enters the inlet end of the backwash arm.
- the strainer may also include a body, a strainer element having an inlet side contained in the body, and a space defined between the body and the strainer element.
- the body further includes an inlet to the strainer element and an outlet from the space.
- a cleaning assembly attaches to the body and includes a nozzle for directing cleaning fluid against the inlet side of the strainer element for dislodging particulate matter from the inlet side of the strainer element mounted to the body.
- the backwash arrangement also includes a backwash arm for collecting the cleaning fluid and dislodged particulate matter mounted to the body. The backwash arm is positioned adjacent to both the inlet side of the strainer element and the nozzle.
- the backwash arm has an axially extending slot defined by two spaced members having ends positioned adjacent to the nozzle.
- the backwash arm and the nozzle together are moveable about a central axis relative to the strainer element.
- a motor can be mounted to the body for moving the backwash arm and the nozzle.

- a hollow bearing 68 receives a lower end of the shaft 58 and a collection pipe 70 supports the bearing 68.
- the arm 60, the shaft 58, the bearing 68 and the pipe 70 form a hydraulic circuit where collected fluid flows from the arm 60 through the shafts 58, the bearing 68 and the pipe 70, and discharges through an outlet 72 of the pipe 70 which may be connected to a drain at atmospheric pressure.
- the arm 60 has a brass scraping bar 74 for scraping particulate matter from the strainer element.

- the nozzle assembly 59 includes a cleaning fluid inlet tube 100 positioned above the strainer top 14.
- the tube 100 is received by a tube receiving bore 101 of a cylindrical cleaning fluid housing 102.
- the cleaning fluid housing 102 includes a circular first surface 104 having a first centrally positioned hole 105 defined by a first edge 106 and a circular second surface 108 having a coaxial second hole 110 defined by a second edge 112.
- a cylindrical shaft 114 which is part of drive 80, passes through the first hole and second hole.
- a space 116 is defined between the interior of the cleaning fluid housing 102 and the exterior surface of the shaft 114.
- One end 118 of the shaft 114 operatively connects to the reducer unit 78 and another end 120 of the shaft 114 operatively connects to a receiving sleeve 122 of the backwash shaft 58. Both end 120 and the receiving sleeve 122 are square cross-sectional shaped.

- Two stops 134, 136 prevent movement of the cleaning fluid housing 102 along the shaft 114 and mount to the outer surface of the shaft 114.
- the stops 134 and 136 are positioned adjacent the housing first surface 104 and the housing second surface 108, respectively.
- the stops 134, 136 prevent the cleaning fluid housing 102 to move extensively along the shaft 114.
- the shaft 114 further includes a U-shaped bore 138 having a coaxial section 140 and two spaced apart transverse sections 142, 144 having open ends 146, 148. Opening 146 is contained within cleaning fluid housing 102 adjacent to space 116.
- end 120 of the shaft 114 operatively connects to the receiving sleeve 122, specifically, the sleeve 122 is positioned at an end of the backwash shaft 58 and is circular in shape having a closed end which abuts against an opening of the coaxial section 140 of the U-shaped bore 138.
- the shaft 114 fixedly mounts to the sleeve 122 by, for example, welding or interference fit.
- the sleeve 122 has a circular opening 150 coaxial with and adjacent to opening 148.

- the plate 166 is welded to a hollow tube 168.
- Appropriate hardware fastens the plate 166 to the sleeve 122 so that the sleeve opening 150 and the plate hole are coaxial with one another and the hollow tube depends therefrom.
- the L-shaped hollow pipe 164 includes a cylindrical hollow first leg 172 and a cylindrical hollow second leg 174.
- the first leg 172 has a closed first end 176, and a mitred opened second end 178.
- An end of the tube 168 passes through a tube receiving bore on the first leg 172 and is welded thereto.
- the second leg 174 includes a mitred first end 180, an open second end 182 and a plurality of nozzle receiving holes extending along the length thereof.
- the mitred first end 180 of the second leg 174 is welded to the mitred second end 178 of the first leg 172 so that the second leg 174 depends 90 degrees from the first leg 172 and longitudinal central axes passing through both the second leg and the collection shaft are parallel to each other.
- a support bracket 184 has one end mounted to and closing off the second end 182 of the second leg 174 and the other end of the support bracket 182 mounts to the backwash shaft 58.
- Each nozzle receiving hole has a respective nozzle 190 mounted thereto.
- the nozzles direct cleaning fluid to the inlet side of the strainer for dislodging particulate matter from the inside of the strainer element. Although eleven nozzles are shown, any number may be used.
- the nozzles have smaller internal diameters in comparison to the nozzle conduit 160, for example 3/8 inch to 1 inch.
- the function of the nozzles 190 is to direct cleaning fluid toward the inlet side 22 of the strainer 20 and to convert the high pressure cleaning fluid entering the inlet tube into high velocity cleaning fluid exiting the nozzles at nozzle tips 192.
- the exiting of the cleaning fluid is a function of the incoming fluid pressure, which should be on the order of 20-40 psig, and the number and spacing of the nozzles 190 which can be determined on a case by case basis.
- the nozzle tips 192 are positioned adjacent to the backwash arm outer ends, facing in the direction of the backwash arm and adjacent to and in close proximity to the inlet side of the strainer element 20 approximately several inches or less.
- the nozzle tip 192 is positioned adjacent to and in close proximity to both the inlet side 22 of the strainer element 20 and the inlet end 66 of the backwash arm 60 so that cleaning fluid exiting from the nozzle tip 192 contacts the inlet side 22 of the strainer element 20 dislodging particulate matter which enters the inlet end 66 of the backwash arm 60.
- the nozzles 190 discharge cleaning fluid at an acute incident angle, such as 45 degrees, with respect to the tangent 195 to the inlet side of the strainer element at the point of contact of the directed cleaning fluid.
- the nozzles are positioned at approximately a 45 degree angle with respect to the tangent of the cleaning fluid point of contact with respect to the inlet side of the strainer.
- the pressurized cleaning fluid is maintained at a pressure greater than that of the fluid flowing through the chamber.
- the cleaning fluid can be fluid which has passed through the strainer element 20.
- the exiting cleaning fluid then reflects off of the inlet side 21 of the strainer element 20 with dislodged particulate matter into the backwash arm 60 between plates 60-62 through the inlet end 66.
- the L-shaped deflector 77 assists in directing the particulate matter and cleaning fluid into the backwash arm 60.
- fluid passing through the strainer 10 will also flow through backwash arm 60.
- the dislodged particulate matter then flows through the backwash shaft 58, bearing 68 and collection pipe 70.
- the collection pipe enters into a sump maintained at atmospheric pressure.
- the pressure differential between the fluid passing through the strainer element 20 and discharge causes the fluid and particulate matter to flow from the backwash arm 60 to the sump.
- the motor and speed reducer unit when activated, rotate or move the backwash arm 60 and nozzles 190 in concert to each other and relative to the strainer element 20 and permits the complete filter 20 to be cleaned.
- the motor and speed reducer unit when activated, rotate or move the backwash arm 60 and nozzles 190 in concert to each other and relative to the strainer element 20 and permits the complete filter 20 to be cleaned.
- strainer 10 results in superior cleaning of the strainer element 20 than that of the backwash methods used in the prior art where limited pressurized fluid is available. This is especially true when the operating pressure is low, say on the order of 5 psig or less. Further, it has been our experience that the amount of cleaning fluid required in this arrangement is on the order of one-tenth the amount which is required through normal backwash operations, resulting in a substantial savings to the user of the cleaning device.
